Software needs to be activated to be used...

I have been using Adobe Premiere Elements 9 on my laptop for several months now. Over this weekend, I took my laptop to my parent's home and uploaded some videos I took over Christmas. Program worked fine until I started the ndering process. It stopped and said that I needed to put in an activation number that I needed to get from your website. I DID NOT have Internet access at my parent's home and I was very pissed off that this program, which I bought and paid for a year ago, did NOT work when I needed it to. Does this Damned program require internet access before it works???  If it does, then Someone NEEDS to come up with a patch for people like me who use this software away for the internet... I AM NOT HAPPY!!!!!

Starfiremoonraven our software should only require activation once when it was installed.  Is it possible you were utilizing a plug-in which might require activation?  Was the situation resolved once you obtained internet access? 
You might also try posting your inquiry to the Premiere Elements forum as users there are going to be more familiar with how Premiere Elements functions and if there is plug-ins which also require activation.

  • I recently inherited a restored iPhone 5 from my uncle and its needs a sim to be activated, could i use my friends sim just to activate my iPhone and then give the sim back once its activated without affecting his contract and later on get a sim ?

    I recently inherited a restored iPhone 5 from my uncle and its needs a sim to be activated, could i use my friends sim just to activate my iPhone and then give the sim back once its activated without affecting his contract and later on get a sim for myself and a contract for me and it all be normal??? Thanks

    The phone MUST have a SIM present in order for activation to complete. The process will not finish otherwise.
    For the OP:
    If the iPhone 5 is locked to a carrier, you must use a SIM from that same carrier. Otherwise I think you would be OK borrowing the SIM to activate the phone.

    The calendar language is determined by system prefs/language & text/formats.

    The Apple ID and Password that was Originally used to Activate the iDevice is required
    If you do not have that information you will not be able to use the Device.

  • TS3694 My iPhone 4 recieved a message saying it needs to be activated. I`ve tried restoring but error 3194 is occuring. How can i restore my phone properly

    I admit i downloaded ios7 from the internet illeagally and now my phone needs to be activated. My iPhone 4 cannot be used and it cannot be restored. I love all of my apple products and i will never download illegal software.

    You are probably getting the error because you have a beta version of iOS 7 that expired yesterday. We've had hundreds of posts about this over the past 18 hours. If you are a developer, and thus have a legitimate copy of iOS 7 beta, go to the Developer's forum, where there are detailed instructions on how to resolve this.
    If you have an illegal pirated copy of iOS 7 you are on your own, because we are not permitted to support stolen software in this Apple-hosted forum. There are solutions, but you will have to find them elsewhere. Start with "DFU mode"

  • Need help in activating CS5 on a new (3rd) computer.  Old laptop is inoperable.

    Hi,
    see >>> http://helpx.adobe.com/creative-cloud/help/install-apps.html here >>> How many computers can I install on
    I quote: You may install software on up to two computers. These two computers can be Windows, Mac OS, or one each.
    If you install on a third computer, it will request you to de-activate on the other two computers. You can then reactivate one of the previous two computers, and use Creative Cloud apps on it.

  • Need help. Activation after update iOS 5.1 is not working!!

    Need Help in activating my iphone 4 after update iOS 5.1. My phone was been neverlock and i used its before update without any activations. After update i can't turn on my phone!!! On the display have message "SIM not valid. Only compatible SIM cards from a supported carrier may be used to activate iPhone. Please insert the SIM card that came with your iPhone or visit a supported carrier's store to receive replacement SIM card". But i haven't any sim cards. Only the sim card from my operator  "Kyivstar" (Ukraine)... What should i do?!
    p.s.: sorry for my bad english, but i live in Ukraine, and we haven't autorized service center of Apple in our country. help me please.

    You have been using a phone that has been hacked to allow it to be used on your network.  Upgrading your phone's software has relocked your phone to the original carrier. 
    You will not be able to use your phone again unless the ORIGINAL carrier offers unlocking.  Many don't, and many who DO offer unlocking, will not unlock unless the phone has active service with the carrier in the appropriate country. 
    You will need to find out who the carrier your phone is locked to is, and see if that carrier unlocks the phone.  It is very likely you will need to buy a new phone.

  • Need help in activation a license key in CCT. It works as a trial now

    Need help in activation a license key in CCT. It works as a trial now

    1st the sata drive cannot be listed as a slave drive to the ide master [key word=ide-can be configured as master OR slave, master IF only 1 hd, master and slave IF 2 hds], on the sata controler you can have master and slave, the ide cable has two connectors for the hds, sata has only 1 hd connector.
    are you wanting to install the sata as primary master and move the operating sys to that drive, if so you will need an IMAGING software to move an operating system OR you could do a fresh operating system install to the sata drive then install your programs.

  • My iPod says it needs to be activated and then says Activation Error, also won't connect to iTunes. Help?

    My iPod Touch says it needs to be activated. I go to activate it using wifi and it comes up with Activation Error: this device is not registered as part of the iPod Developer Program. I'm not a memeber of that. I'm not even an developer, I'm 14. My iPod has worked normally for months now. Then I go to connect it to iTunes to reset it (I have checked and iI have the latest version) The computer recognises the iPod is connected Tand it charges but nothing appears up on iunes. It worked fine yesterday

  • I activated my ipad, used iCloud & Find my iphone with Apple ID named: A@.... But now I've changed address of Apple ID from A@... to the new one: B@... Which Apple ID will be asked to re-activate 7.0.4 ipad - A or B?

    Hello everybody!
    I'm using ipad mini and the iOS is 7.0.4. I used an Apple ID (called: A), and I activated my ipad, used iCloud & Find my iphone with this A account. But now I've changed address of Apple ID from A@.... to the new one: B@.... (just changed email address of Apple ID, not create a new ID), and then I signed out iCloud, old Apple ID, etc... on my ipad and signed in with new id B@.... Everythings seem OK, I can sign in/out iCould, turn on/turn off Find my iphone as well with the new one (B@...)
    But I still have a question (and still confusing with it): What will happend when I restored my ipad? I mean my iOS is 7, so which Apple ID will be asked to re-activate my ipad after I restore it, old id A@.... (this one cannot be used now) or the new one B@...., please?
    Thank you very much for your helpful informations!

    If you've succesfully changed the ID for iCloud and Find my phone, it will be your new ID you use if you need to restore it.
